P4: It is logically possible to create a finite mass of rock that cannot be lifted by its own maker (from P3).

This is about as robust of an argument as saying, "it's logically possible to not be omnipotent, and omnipotence is the ability to do anything logically possible, therefore god cannot exist".


This is a delightful attempt at a logical process, but...c'mon, man.

Even accepting the premise that suffering is bad [nope]
*angry face*

Disutility (conceived as suffering - minus potential benefit) is what's being discussed. Although, see my rebuttal on page 8 for why I'm not an antinatalist >.> It might explain the difference between disutility and suffering a bit more.

Ah, I see. Just hopped in with a quick skim of the OP.

Spoiler
I"ll be off for the next bit, but my post still remains because the point that antinatalism is by no conceivable way a pragmatic philosophy is important to the initial question.

I thought you'd have seen numerous counterarguments to this by now Meta!

Depends on whether or not "bad life" involves intoxication. Even accepting the premise that suffering is bad [nope], antinatalism has next to no pragmatic worth. Reasoning from the personal sense like some deranged ape wouldn't change that.

@Meta, check out the back and forths between LogicRollsTheDice and Carla Dellastella on Youtube if you get free time. I think it'd be right up your alley.

Gaming / Re: >yfw you find out Sprint will remain in Halo 5
« on: February 02, 2015, 05:07:04 PM »
Woah what'd I miss

I miss the fun stuff when I'm at school huh?

Sprint in Halo 5? Well, I doubt 343 would increase the base player speed to compensate, so I expect them to leave it in. Clambering is cool, but it's weird not jumping as high as I did in Halo CE-2-3.

Do I think it causes issues? Yeah.
Maps are stretched, and people run from battles. Sure the whole "you sprint then your shield won't recharge" idea is great, but people still run from battles all the time.

I'll still play it at launch, I may get bored of it like Halo 4, but it's not my ideal incarnation of Halo. However I don't make the decisions, so what happens happens.
Sprint isn't confirmed to be in. It most likely will be, but not yet.

We don't even know how Halo 5 is being rebalanced yet. Bravo confirmed that Josh Holmes is working on the list of changes they're making based on Beta feedback. It'll be out soon.

As for Sprint, I do agree with part of your assessment. However, 343i has also said that Sprint originally had much harsher penalties before the beta. Hopefully they'll be reinstated. I think that Sprint is good and fun mechanic if it can only be used offensively. If it can be used defensively, It doesn't work.

I think this Beta wasn't executed very well though. We are supposedly having BTB in Halo 5.
Yet, we didn't touch a vehicle in The Beta. Play on a big map, have 8-8 teams.

If BTB is in (which it should, it's Halo for crying out loud), then I expect it to be pretty broken.
In the context of it being called the "Halo 5: Guardians Arena Multiplayer Beta" I think it was executed quite well.

We haven't even heard a single thing about BTB in Halo 5 yet. Let's wait for official info before determining its brokenness, then we can debate over that. For all we know, BTB will be vastly different than the Arena side. Traditionally, BTB has just been Arena Halo blown up to 16 players on large maps. Nothing else.

ayy

I never got into it. All I remember was that the villain took forms of byte orders.

I dunno, I'm just a year younger than Goji and I don't remember this, either.

There was a dinosaur episode which I burned into my mind, hence why I remember the intro

30cm overnight here as well.

I love walking in snow at nighttime

Has it hit your city yet? I know Brampton hasn't got it fully yet, but they're expected too overnight as well.

Yep, still going.

My school has the worst snow day communication ever. Frustrating... eeeeeven though it's pretty much a fact that the campus never gives out snow days ever!

the other two sequels aren't canon in this universe
Oh really?

They are canon, just fairly irrelevant [the third movie is actually completely irrelevant as of now] as they're dealing with Site B. JW is back to the original island.
Ah, the premise for the film made me think JP was the only canon movie in JW.

I think that's what they want you to believe.

Though I still think TLW was a good movie :P

Have a look.
Why have a website of an organization from a movie?

Masrani bought InGen a long while ago and proceeded with their project, even bringing Wu back to correct his mistakes [and help with the hybrid in the course of the movie]. Jurassic World has been safe and operational for several years by the beginning of the movie.
